What people say about working with me

Angela was given such a glowing recommendation; I didn’t think she could be that good. She did however more than exceed my expectations.

Sales Executive, Sanofi

Angela was such a help – informative, imaginative and she certainly doesn’t put people in boxes. In short, truly inspirational and it was so much fun. A real professional – and great at motivating people.

Customer Service Executive, Hitachi

Angela was both challenging in her questions yet provided a mature, professional welcoming relationship. Excellent.

Sales Manager, Astra Zeneca

I was really reticent about Executive Outplacement Coaching and if I am perfectly honest, I did not think it would benefit me. How wrong I was, Angela literally changed my life. I now run my own successful company with a great team of people. I also have a great work life balance, which I have never had before. Angela has been instrumental in opening my eyes to new possibilities and also helping me meet all the movers and the shakers and establish great local business connections. I highly recommend her.

Vice President, Marsh

Angela George has been really excellent. I cannot praise her enough.

Manager, IBM

From our very first meeting, throughout my job search campaign and now beyond, Angela George has been a real tonic and one of my most important sources of support. Angela encouraged me to go to the events at the Innovation Centre and I’ve regularly met great people, heard highly motivational talks. She has never failed to offer a word of encouragement or support. She even sent me a card to wish me well on my first day at my new job! I’d certainly commend Angela to anyone who has just lost their job – super support!’

Senior Manager, MacMillan Cancer Research

I decided to take early retirement after 30 years in Banking and Angela helped me focus on my aspirations and set clear goals to help set up as a freelance training consultant. She really is an excellent coach.

Local Directors, Lloyds TSB

Angela manages to combine a very engaging, positive and supportive style with a useful challenge in areas such as the questions one might receive in an interview situation. Without exception, I have found her formal advice and constructive input to be extremely sound and helpful.

Director, BAe Systems

Angela was engaging and brought a lot of real-life examples & scenarios, bringing the workshop to life.

Trainer, Sainsburys

Angela helped rebuild my confident and turned me into a marketable product once more.

Marketing Manager, Fujitsu Siemens

I have no doubt in my mind that I secured a senior position due to the good advice and instruction given to me by Angela George. She was very supportive to me during these difficult periods.

Facilities Manager, ExCel

Angela came to my rescue when I was, at 47, “invited to seek opportunities elsewhere” having not secured a Board position and left my corporate career. Her support whilst at Penna and advice were both brilliant and much appreciated, especially given that it was coming from such an engaging person. Our meetings flew by. She has empathy and a sense of fun in shed loads and can be a pretty tough cookie (in the best of ways) at times. Highly commercial. The outcome was that I then started an amazing period of working life as an interim manager, both in the UK and around the world. I am so fortunate to have worked with her.

Divisional Head, Waitrose

I would highly recommend Angela George, really worthwhile

Project Manager, Centek

Angela’s expert attention to my situation helped me in objectively managing a happy outcome that, most importantly has the full support of my wife and family.

Project Manager, Cable & Wireless

The help has been extremely useful and at every interview, I felt confident and well prepared. I’m sure Angela’s help has allowed me to find the right role much more quickly. I could have done with this coaching years ago.

Project Manager, Hewlett Packard

I just wanted to thank Angela for all her help and advice. The CV she helped me produce was a winner and the coaching advice was of terrific help with the interview

Manager AA/Centrica

It was wonderful – I didn’t realize it would be so good. Angela transformed my CV, and gave me skills on how to perform in an interview”

Engineer, Centek

I had a chance to work with Angela and originally asked for help building my LinkedIn profile, but ended up with a revamped CV, and an introduction to networking in the local Torbay area. Angela is brilliant to work with and every employee that left her individual 1:1’s came out with a smile on their face and a new sense of confidence. We couldn’t have asked for a better service during this difficult time.

HR Manager, Centek

Angela used her own experiences to underline useful points – I have found this very interesting – the positivity towards the challenge of employment, the need to research more thoroughly and being able to answer the interview questions to my strengths.

Store Trainer, Sainsburys

I very much appreciated the ‘What do you want to do with your life’ sessions. I did not expect this and it was as important as the job search sessions

Senior IT Manager, Compaq

I just wanted to say thank you for all the help and guidance you showed me in October. I have since interviewed for 3 jobs and was offered 2. You gave me the confidence to get over my barriers and move on to a more rewarding and challenging career. I will be starting my new role in February. I am very excited about this opportunity and owe so much of that to your pep-talks! Thanks again!

Generalist, Centek Group

Angela’s support during a time of uncertainty for me in 2019 was invaluable. Her highly professional guidance and subject knowledge (from CVs to interview techniques and more) helped me both secure a new role far quicker than I could have predicted but also to push myself to new challenges and ambitions. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone who is in need of guidance, small or large, be it for general career guidance or to secure a new role. Thank you Angela!

Business Consultant, EDF
